Because, Donald Trump has programmed his followers to discount as "fake news" whatever may be in the report. All of his work and all of his facts will be for naught.
That is why he needs a different strategy to inform the people about what happened and who was involved?
In my opinion, the Special Counsel should release his report one bit at a time, over a matter of several days.
The first day will be discounted and discredited by Donald Trump and his supporters.
The second day will be called "more of the same".
The third day will be mostly ignored.
The fourth day will show a pattern that might get a second look by the non-believers.
The fifth day could be a very serious charge and could possibly warrant serious consideration.
On the sixth day, the evidence will be too overwhelming to ignore.
And on the seventh day, he could rest his case.
We know that Trump and his supporters plan on discrediting whatever Mueller may report. If he dumps it all in one report, it will be much easier for them to discredit and ignore.
But, if he gives them the medicine over a number of days, they will not be able to continue saying that it is "fake news" and, hopefully, the facts will register with most of the American people, regardless of the propaganda against them.
Just my opinion.

(111,111 posts)..and he would decide whether or not to give to the Congress?
Is that not correct?

but everything else Mueller is handling case by case, indictment by indictment, plea deal by plea deal.

(10,437 posts)The other "reports" will be in the form of indictments if criminal wrong doings were done by others than trump as what we have seen so far

You're a very gracious person. That is not snark. You are a better person than I am.

(7,306 posts)I don't believe people that support what's going on right now are as "human" as the people that find it reprehensible. But as you stated, that's just my opinion.

(7,299 posts)The drip, drip method will only give Don the Con the opportunity to fire Mueller. Mueller knows that. This special circumstance demands critical mass. To hell with Don the cons deplorables. They will call it fake news regardless of how it is released.
